I mentioned a few days ago the number of #bernieorbust tweets. No doubt some are legit people who I think are very misguided, but digging in some more I suspect there's an increasing number of those are highly suspicious. One thing I like to do is use the advanced twitter search to look up their first tweets. If an account was created in like 2010 and has zero tweets up until recently, and nearly all the tweets are divisive highly charged political tweets, then that raises some huge red flags. That doesn't mean it's coming from a troll farm in Russia, but it does make me suspect they are not acting in good faith. Occasionally, I've came across some accounts in which they totally switched "sides". I haven't seen one of those in awhile, though.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
